“There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”

“The righteous man perishes, and no man takes it to heart;And devout men are taken away, while no one understands.For the righteous man is taken away from evil,2 He enters into peace;They rest in their beds,Each one who walked in his upright way.3 “But come here, you sons of a sorceress,Offspring of an adulterer and a prostitute.4 “Against whom do you jest?Against whom do you open wide your mouthAnd stick out your tongue?Are you not children of rebellion,Offspring of deceit,5 Who inflame yourselves among the oaks,Under every luxuriant tree,Who slaughter the children in the ravines,Under the clefts of the crags?

…

11 “Of whom were you worried and fearfulWhen you lied, and did not remember MeNor give Me a thought?Was I not silent even for a long timeSo you do not fear Me?12 “I will declare your righteousness and your deeds,But they will not profit you.13 “When you cry out, let your collection of idols deliver you.But the wind will carry all of them up,And a breath will take them away.But he who takes refuge in Me will inherit the landAnd will possess My holy mountain.”
